RTE dialog field not working in 6.3.3

[rachelb88688093]

I'm having a very similar issue to this thread that was closed with no resolution: RichText not working for touch UI AEM 6.4

In my local instance (6.3.0), the rich text editor is working fine in my custom component but in 6.3.3 it won't even allow me to add anything to the field or show any of the plugins. In 6.3.3 there is an "Uncaught ReferenceError: $this is not defined" console error.

6.3.0

6.3.3

6.3.3 console error:

This is the dialog.xml:

Any ideas of how to fix?

Thanks!

This could be a bug in the upgrade. If the RTE is not working as shown in the video:

Then something needs to be fixed at the software level.

Please report this to AEM Customer Care by raising a support ticket so it can be fixed.

This is a known issue with the inital release 6.3.3.0.

AEM 6.3.3.0 was reuploaded. You can download it again and install this one instead to resolve the issue.
